I’m a Registered Clinical Counsellor with 15 years of experience in mental health, and I’ve learned that meaningful therapy rarely comes from applying the same explanation or approach to everyone.

I’m interested in understanding what is influencing your struggles. Why does your mind keep returning to the same thought? Why does your body react so strongly when part of you knows you’re safe? Why does a pattern continue even when you understand it logically? And sometimes, what might your distress be telling you about something in your life that needs attention?

My approach brings the mind and body into the same conversation. Rather than seeing anxiety, intrusive thoughts, emotional overwhelm, or protective patterns as something to simply get rid of, we become curious about what is driving them and what may be keeping them in place.

I hold a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University and am a Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC) with the British Columbia Association of Clinical Counsellors. My work integrates Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, Narrative Therapy, Emotion-Focused Family Therapy (EFFT), somatic approaches, and an understanding of the nervous system. I draw from these approaches differently depending on the person in front of me, rather than expecting you to fit into one particular model of therapy.

I work with children ages 8+, teens, and adults, with particular experience in anxiety and overthinking, panic and phobias, intrusive thoughts and OCD, relationship and attachment concerns, highly sensitive individuals, and reproductive and postpartum transitions.

What matters to me is that therapy doesn’t stop at insight. Understanding why something is happening can be incredibly important, but we also want that understanding to create movement. That might mean your body no longer responding with the same intensity, a thought losing the hold it once had, feeling differently in a relationship, trusting yourself more, or finding that something that once controlled your life simply doesn’t carry the same weight anymore.

I believe therapy can be a place where we understand your experience deeply enough to create meaningful change, not by correcting who you are, but by helping you find a different relationship with what has been keeping you stuck.
